Bad stuff happens. Murphy even wrote a Law about it. The new TomTom GO 720’s ‘Help me!’ menu is designed to help you out when stuff goes wrong.
Instead of fumbling through phonebooks or using 411, the Help Me! menu can automatically route you – walking OR driving – to the nearest emergency services like police and hospitals, all with a few taps on the screen.
If you’ve paired a compatible Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone with the GO 720, you can also immediately call emergency services via your device.
The feature I find most useful in the Help Me! menu is the Where am I? button. If, for example, your car breaks down in an unfamiliar place, Where am I? provides you – in plain English – a description of your current location including Latitude/Longitude, even if you’ve recently lost GPS satellite lock.
All in all, Help Me! is simply about keeping you safe and confident behind the wheel. There’s lots more to Help me! and it’s just one of the many all new features of the GO 720. Head on over to TomTom.com to learn more!

I think the help me is a really great feature
The HELP ME feature of the TomTom Go 720 is what made me decide to go with TomTom vice a Garmin system! It is exactly what is needed to make me feel more at ease, when my wife or family is on the road without me. Hopefully it will never be needed, but is great knowing it is there just in case! All the TomTom units should have this feature! And if not, it would be wise for TomTom to possibly add it via a Free software patch or upgrade! The would indeed grab & maintain new customers easily this way, and word of mouth is the best way to sell their GPS products! Regards & thanks!
I’ve my Tom Tom for about a year and haven’t used it for quite some time. I know the battery is pretty dead or at least I think it is because I can’t get it to operate.
How to I recharge the battery and get the TOM TOM going again.
I appreciate any help you may provide. Thanks
